My Project Proposal Journey

I was midway in my Residency 2 program, faced with
defeat and hopelessness, I felt like giving up.
I browsed across a post by Amy on the DNP website, I said to myself, let
me see what she has to offer. But, deep
down I felt like quitting. She came on
the phone with the most positive attitude and gave me hope when I felt there
was no hope. She said, “We are going to
go through this together, I will not stop until you get this project proposal
passed”. She meant every word; she went
above and beyond the duties of a statistician. She gave me momentum I did know
I had and gave me a voice to speak against my greatest critiques. Every time I
speak with her, I received a boost of energy to persevere.

I could not ask for a more knowledgeable
statistician. I was faced with very
tight deadlines, and she was on the ball. She flawlessly put together the data
analysis in record time. She listens
carefully to what I want as my project goal and steered me in the right
direction to achieve the project goal.
She was always following up with me to make sure I was pushing forward.
At my lowest point, I will receive a message from her, my thoughts were, how
did she know I was losing momentum. I
finally received my project approval, thank you Amy for always being there for
me, you are more than a statistician, you are my motivator, friend, and just a
wonderful human being that wants students to succeed.
